Look, I've met my fair share of psychotic 12 year olds, including ones that were already killing and skinning squirrels and cats, but LIFE SENTENCE? Any 12 year old committing a crime that is worthy of a life sentence requires serious psychological help, not being thrown in prison...

A life sentence here you become eligible for parole in 10-25 years depending on the crime. It does not mean you will be granted it though, and you can remain in prison your whole life. You also remain on parole your entire life if granted.
Because it is a waste of life… that 12 year old will serve serve the state as labourers. We’re talking cleaning toilets, doing construction, with overseers and all.
It’s free real estate.

He looks like a movie villain announcing the next Hunger Games.
Turns out the UK does this, but it’s usually “At His Majesty’s Pleasure”. Some people like Robert Thompson were released shortly after reaching adulthood

In civilized countries, a “life” sentence is actually just contingent on rehabilitation.
They should probably rename it, then.
“Sort your shit out” sentence?
Isn’t that a “His Majesty’s Pleasure”?
The idea is that they can keep you for life if you are never safe to release.
You gotta change your life man - sentence?

There’s no life without parole here.
Why not the death penalty?! /s
